Odds Matcher not working Sept 8th 14.00

Hi,
Thought you should know IE is saying it can't display your odds matcher. Haver tried umpteen times over last 15 mins or so.

Gremlins?

14:30.
It's back now.

It's working in firefox. I always have at least 2 web browsers available and if it don't work in both of them it's a server issue.

While on the subject, how often does the oddsmatcher update.
Yesterday i was looking for a good match for a vc £50 snr freebet, it came up with sweden v malta cs 3-0 7.0 at vc and 7.0 at betfair.
That was yesterday morning, but it was only 5.5 at vc.
But it was still showing that ,as a 100% one this afternoon. its not been 7.0 for well over a day.
And last week it came up with a good arb for totesport, but the market didn't even exist on totesport.

I don't know how often it updates but I would guess it's pretty fast.
I have had problems with it myself from time to time though - sometimes it's linked to a price that's completely wrong. The most recent being a Barnsley v Reading fixture.
The teams both played each other twice in the same week and the match it came up with was to the wrong fixture and I backed it by mistake. Always check things as it's only a guide and starting point.
Make it a rule to check everything matches i.e date,team at home,kick off time etc. before placing the bet.....if in doubt.....don't place it.

It changes every five mins or so I think. Some odds will have change a lot in that time. Although sometimes it is not spot on its far easier than finding the odds yourself. Sometimes it works the other way too - Ive had a good few arbs out of it.

Yeah I still use it all the time but it's only a guide and not infallible.
